September 2020[edit]
Please do not add or change content, as you did at Australia, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Nick-D (talk) 09:34, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
Area Of Australia[edit]
Gday Nick. The current citation link on the wikipedia page for the area of Australia is http://www.ga.gov.au/education/facts/dimensions/compare.htm, which doesn't exist. The archive.org version of that page that's also linked is from 2007 with outdated stats. The link I changed it to (as well as updating the area) is the up-to-date calculation from the same government site of the original link, namely ga.gov.au: https://www.ga.gov.au/scientific-topics/national-location-information/dimensions/area-of-australia-states-and-territories Please have another look at the edit I made. Should have added more info in the summary of the edit explaining this? Let me know if I can revert the change. I made a typo by including quote marks (") in the "title=" part which I can also fix.
